Restricted County Roads

The Restricted County Roads information system is the one stop location for information on WDEA county road restrictions.

Notification of new and updated restrictions is available via email. Sign up and stay up to date on all county road restrictions.

NOTE: The WDEA Uniform County Permit System provides the road restriction information, notifications and road restriction map as a courtesy to the counties and the industry. The information provided is from multiple data sources from the participating Counties. The information is believed to be accurate but the WDEA cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information within the system. It is the permit holder’s responsibility to follow all applicable road restrictions. A listing of the participating county road superintendents and sheriff offices is available on the ndenergy.org website. Please call the county before driving to clarify any questions you have about county roadways or routing.
